Bringing £9m-rated creative lynchpin back to St. James’ would be great for Newcastle United

Rated at £9m by Transfermarkt, he’d be a bargain on a free and any arrival would certainly go down well with supporters, considering his first spell on Tyneside.

Having endured a very successful time with the Magpies before moving to PSG, Cabaye is still a talented player and could be an integral part of their midfield alongside Jonjo Shelvey for example.

The midfield general has played in 29 games this season and despite only getting one assist all season long, Newcastle fans know that he brings so much more to the game than direct involvement with goals.
